Having faith and miracles is a gift of the Holy Spirit. Miracles happen in environments where people make room for them, and are an expression of what we know about God. When we write our goals and dreams down, read and pray over them consistently, we are making room for those things to be accomplished. So when we walk in the baptism of the Holy Spirit and apply the gifts to our every day life, that is the practical application of Christianity. Christianity is the thinking man's religion and it is a practical everyday tool.

"But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves." James 1:22

The parable of the prodigal son represents God's love and mercy for us, especially when we return back to Him from being far away. In this parable, Pastor David Gonzalez compares a prodigal's motives to a locomotive; slow to start in their rebellion plan, and at full momentum completely fallen away from God or in sin. We learn from this parable that a prodigal will keep their plans and rebellion hidden to themselves, so it's necessary to stay connected with people who will correct your thoughts. We also learn from this parable that God's forgiveness at our repentance is instant. Some one who has fallen away from God and returned to Him has been humbled and knows genuine repentance.

Faith is not merely belief, but belief expressed through consistent action. Pastor David Gonzalez emphasizes that faith is essential to pleasing God and must be demonstrated through daily choices, words, prayer, and perseverance. True faith is not passive or purely intellectual; it requires action. Faith and perseverance: Life brings hardship, injustice, and unexpected suffering, even for faithful believers. Faith means continuing to act, pray, and believe despite discouragement, setbacks, or delayed results. Many people merely react to circumstances instead of acting in faith. Faith involves taking responsibility, believing God is a rewarder, and intentionally shaping one’s future through obedience, prayer, and spoken confession. Repeated faith confessions, rooted in Scripture, help shape belief, expectation, and behavior. Writing goals and confessions down and declaring them daily trains the mind to expect God’s promises to manifest. We are called to “push back the darkness” through persistent prayer, spiritual authority, and refusing to give up.
